Yes. According to the FDA, Tupperware brands, and a recent independent study by Good Housekeeping, Bisphenol A does not leach from plastics designed for microwave use into foods.

A bigger concern (according to the GH study) seems to be BPA leaching into foods from the lining of canned foods.

according to my research, the answer is no. This is for any plastic whether they are bpa free or not. As a matter of fact I had an employees out sick for a week as he would always bring his food in tupperware. He wound up with blood poisoning.

Is melting tupperware harmful?

There are a few special Tupperware products that should be hand-washed. See the Tupperware site for a listing. According to the manufacturer, Tupperware purchased after 1979 is dishwasher safe on the top rack: although dishwashers have the same temperature water spray on both top and bottom racks, many have drying heater elements located near the bottom. However, any plastics can deteriorate at a faster rate due to higher temperatures and moisture. The lids and containers should be washed at the same time in the same load, although they may warp and crack after a number of washes.

Why do you put plastic in microwave ovens?

The Reason for these is because Some Plastic Can Not Stand the heat that The MicroWave Oven melt produce therefore when you put a unstsble Plastic in the Microwave oven it Will meltAnother Response:Certain types of plastic may be recommended for use in microwave ovens because they allow the microwaves to pass through them. In this way the food inside the plastic container is cooked while the container stays cool. Not all plastics are microwave safe; some will melt. Metal cannot be used in microwaves. Some types of ceramic dishes, which may have metal elements in their glaze, are not safe in microwave ovens. Consequently some companies such as Tupperware, Rubbermaid and Pampered Chef produced lines of plastic cookware specifically for microwave ovens.More recently, studies suggest that molecular particles from some types of plastic migrate into food when heated in microwave ovens. While manufacturers maintain that their products are safe, some medical experts advise using only glass or safe ceramic cookware in microwave ovens.
